“Getting to explore the worlds of Dark Spaces has been a career highlight without question, and doing so alongside my dear friend and trusted editor Mark Doyle just makes it all the better,” Snyder said in a statement provided to io9. “The ability to forgo supernatural elements in favor of highlighting the true light and darkness of our reality has been able to take me back to basics in a truly exciting fashion. I’ll say this—if Wildfire was modeled after noir, then Dungeon is a stone-cold thriller. It might be the darkest story I’ve ever written, while at the same time some of the most fun it’s ever been developing a new series. The work Hayden is doing here has taken our creative partnership to new depths, and I cannot wait for you all to explore those with us.”
Added Sherman, “The fears that Scott is examining in Dungeon are guttural, stomach churning, and (I have to imagine) entirely universal. It’s a whole different sort of story than Wildfire, while maintaining the grounded thriller core that defines much of Dark Spaces. Which altogether makes this the perfect opportunity for me to push in a much different visual direction, something that can do proper justice to this new terror! It’s such a pure joy to be back creating this follow up alongside Scott and the whole IDW Originals team.”
The full creative team for Dark Spaces: Dungeon includes Scott Snyder (writer); Hayden Sherman (artist and main covers); Patricio Delpeche (colors); Andworld Design (letters); Dustin Nguyen (variant covers; more variants will be revealed soon).
